Two Kerry men facing charges in connection with the state’s largest ever seizure of crystal meth have been sent forward to stand trial in a non-jury Special Criminal Court.
44-year-old Tralee businessman Nathan McDonnell of Ballyroe, Tralee, faces five charges including possession of crystal meth for sale or supply, and facilitating a criminal organisation to commit serious offences. His co-accused, 41-year-old James Leen of Kilmorna, Listowel, also faces five charges, including importing the crystal meth into Ireland, and directing the activities of a criminal organisation within the state. Radio Kerry’s Mark Lynch has been covering the case.
